Air traffic investigators will assess a collision between two aircraft at Melbourne Airport, which saw a Virgin and Jetstar jet crash into each other. The Virgin aircraft carrying 175 passengers hit an empty Jetstar plane, as it was leaving the gate for take-off. The impact saw one jet lose part of its tail cone, and the other suffer wing damage, but caused no injury to passengers. Airport operations are continuing normally but officials say passengers should contact their airline for an update on flight status. 938LIVE/su
